	🎸 ♥ 3:18pm Bas NL: Hi Fabio! Hi All! November i'll be attending a The Necks concert. :D
	♥ 3:18pm David (in London): enters The Lounge of Failure late, sits down right on top of Mariano's tricorn hat, squashes it flat, gets up and sidles away unnoticed Hello groovers!
	3:18pm Wfmu Listener Phillip: Ahhh😊 I feel so much better that @fabio is here for another Thursday😊
	🎸 ♥ 3:19pm Bruce S.: I'm likeing vertigo
	♥ 3:21pm mariano: 'Evening, David! No worries about the hat, I'll have my footman pick me up a new one at the hatter's.
	🎸 ♥ 3:23pm Threemoons: Speaking of failures...per political convo this AM; just had a kid canvassing for Van Bremer buzz me to try to get into my building. I freaking hate that. I always vote for the candidate I want regardless but I always tell these pests that I will never vote for a candidate whose campaign calls me or tries to knock on my door/get into my building.
	🎸 ♥ 3:23pm chresti: Hi Fabio and strong ears!
	🎸 ♥ 3:24pm Bruce S.: I think it's calledcanvasing, they all do it
	🎸 ♥ 3:25pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: these guys are so good every time
	🎸 ♥ 3:26pm Threemoons: @ Bruce S I still hate it--and there is a huge fucking NO SOLICITING sign in both of my building's vestibule windows.
	🎸 ♥ 3:28pm Bruce S.: I know it's really annoying,like being on the no call list and still geting those stupid calls
	🎸 ♥ 3:29pm Handy Haversack: Your calendar is filling up, Bas! David, don't let him stick you with the bill -- that was only his fourth-best tricorn!
	🎸 ♥ 3:31pm Bas NL: nods feverishly
	🎸 ♥ 3:32pm Handy Haversack: (Though if you sit on his fife, you'll be whistling a different tune!)
	♥ 3:32pm David (in London): Handy, fourth best!? I should have pilfered his cape, too. H, M, Bas, 3M, Chresti, TDK, Rev D, Robm, Carmichael, Ken et al. Greetings good people. I have carrot cake in case the Reverend is lurking.
	🎸 ♥ 3:33pm Bas NL: Hi David!
	🎸 ♥ 3:33pm chresti: Hi David!
	🎸 ♥ 3:34pm Bas NL: SPK!
	🎸 ♥ 3:34pm Bruce S.: Oldie but goodie
	♥ 3:35pm mariano: There are limits to my indulgence when someone impugns the handiwork of one of the great modistes and perruquiers of New Orleans.
	♥ 3:35pm chris in the redwoods: hello, Fabio and friendly folks failing to fail.
	3:37pm blackbodegabag: nice, nothing like a little SPK on a sunny afternoon
	♥ 3:37pm TDK60: Hiya David in Londonstoke, Chresti in San Gabriel. \| I want a Republican canvasser to come to my pad. Over coffee I'll hypnotize them into my leftist troublemaker cell.
	🎸 ♥ 3:37pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: waiting patiently for my next clicky star
	🎸 ♥ 3:39pm chresti: Hiya TDK60 in the Heights!
	3:39pm chair: Hi Fab can you queue up Socialist by PIL sometime this set? No presh and thank you!!
	🎸 ♥ 3:40pm Bruce S.: Inviting a canvaser in for coffee,could be asking for a little trouble
	♥ 3:40pm TDK60: I recall when a pal first turned me onto SPK, a tape. A bit scary. Hunting Lodge was on the other side.
	3:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah. I've seen - & I'm in smalltown NewHampshuh - people put signs on their doors saying 'It's OK - we're Liberals/Demos, we got this one, Thanks'... Things about it is: Come Election Day, it's all down to Numbers & getting people to that Poll to mark the box. Which is why mail-in ballots & longer hours or days to Vote - & more places to do it - are what Democracy in the USA are all teetering on Right Now... & yerknow IDs & gerrymandering (candidates choosing voters instead of other way around...) &tc.
	3:43pm Smog on the Tyne: Hello you lovely lot from a bright and sunny Northern England!
	♥ 3:45pm David (in London): How do Smoggy Tynester, from a damp Smoke.
	🎸 ♥ 3:45pm Bruce S.: RevRab63 perfect accompaniement to the music thanks
	🎸 ♥ 3:45pm chresti: Do the Repubbs even canvas? I thought they just made robo-calls.
	🎸 ♥ 3:46pm Handy Haversack: I think we'll vote day-of. The early-voting place is a convenient ferry ride away -- except both ferry piers involved are now closed because of corruption, incompetence, and greed. Which means either a 40-min. walk or driving to a place with no parking or I guess maybe one bus would get us within a few blocks? But day-of, it's a two block-walk and the dog can come along, which he enjoys.
	3:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...if we got Money Crapitalism out of Civic Elections - so it's less like continuous Advertising blitz - that might help as well...
	🎸 ♥ 3:47pm Threemoons: @HH ditto, I live v close to my day of voting place.
	🎸 ♥ 3:48pm Handy Haversack: Threemoons, my friend and his boys are excited for a trip to Gamestoria!
	3:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Must admit I like marking the box & feeding the machine with my ballot - some illusion of certainty I suppose - & an outing if I'm honest. Early Nov. also has my Birthday - so that ♏︎Scorpio Collective Power trip & all...
	🎸 ♥ 3:49pm Bruce S.: Really important mayoral election in NYC this year. I feel like we are at a cross road
	🎸 ♥ 3:51pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: honest question is there any republican with a chance to win mayor? i feel like i have only heard about the dem primary with the assumption that whoever gets it will be the next mayor
	🎸 ♥ 3:52pm Bruce S.: Curtis sliwa is not going to be mayor, no way
	🎸 ♥ 3:55pm Bruce S.: and the brooklyn democratic polical machine which Eric Adams is a member of
	🎸 ♥ 3:56pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: i heard his name (Silwa) a few times, checked out his website and realized there's just no fucking way this guy has a chance right? like, just look at his "policies"
	🎸 ♥ 3:56pm Bruce S.: By the way excellent set Fabio
	🎸 ♥ 3:56pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: is he the republican favorite? he can't be right?
	🎸 ♥ 3:56pm Handy Haversack: Rev Rab, NYC had the coolest voting machines, with little switches and a BIG RED HANDLE. When you voted with that thing, you felt like you'd really done something. I was sad to see them go.
	🎸 ♥ 3:56pm Lixiviated Life: I climbed a route in the Gunks called "Three Pines" It was thriling. I think there's only 2 pines left.
	🎸 ♥ 3:57pm Threemoons: @HH glad that I could help out! :)
	🎸 ♥ 3:57pm Handy Haversack: Where is that route, Lix? We like the Gunks a lot and will be nearby later this month.
	🎸 ♥ 3:57pm Bas NL: Sounds like a slot machine, Handy.
	🎸 ♥ 3:58pm Threemoons: @HH I MISS those old skool voting machines. I remember being taken to vote with my Mom when I was maybe 3 years old; she explained the whole process to me. Something SO SATISFYING about the ratchety KLANG to close the curtain and then that feeling of accomplishment when you pulled it back!
	🎸 ♥ 3:58pm Handy Haversack: Slot machines used to be cool, too! Now those are all digital also. It's a shite state of affairs.
	🎸 ♥ 3:59pm Threemoons: Fun factoid: That old skool voting machine lever noise was one of the many random noises used for the sound effects of the original Star Wars movie (before they put out that beshitted "enhanced" version).
	🎸 ♥ 3:59pm Bas NL: Jackpot: Four-years-in-a-row!
	🎸 ♥ 4:00pm Lixiviated Life: So I'm gone for a few weeks and this is what I come back to? (I wonder what's on WBAI now?)
	4:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Don't know NYC - but of course this is the thing: Republicans have known for a long time that their Policies put them increasingly in the Minority. So - actual Democracy cannot be their electoral strategy. They need only double down on their base to turn them out - whereas being 'Liberal' by definition means tolerance of broader views & a challenge more like herding cats - despite our clear & ever-expanding Majority. It's clear that Government isn't keeping up with Majority opinion. The USA will become more of a Democracy - or something else now. I lost real interest in Star Wars by 1977 - but their intent to make it a 'lived-in' Futurism was an interesting point - & remember hearing much about their organic approach to Sound FX. Thwacking telephone pole restraint cables for pew-pew lasers for example...
	♥ 4:07pm TDK60: Is there a band called Pew Pew Lasers? Should be.
	🎸 ♥ 4:09pm chresti: The Should Be Pew Pew Lasers.
	4:09pm Brian in New Orleans: that clicking bottle scene was improvised...at least the clicking..."Warriors....come out and plaaaay"
	🎸 ♥ 4:09pm The Oscar: Afternoon! My favorite scene in the Warriors is at the end when the prom kids get on the subway across from them, and the two parties awkwardly stare each other down. I've been on both sides of that exchange many times.
	♥ 4:10pm mariano: Not a big fan of the director's cut with the added comic-book graphics, but The Warriors has been a favorite since I first saw it way back when I was 8 or 9. One of my absolute favorite opening sequences in any movie, and yeah, it's a great tour of 70s NYC. That's the real Gangs of New York.
	♥ 4:10pm Scott67: G'day Fab & Strong Ones! ✌😎🌏🌻
	🎸 ♥ 4:11pm The Oscar: Also one of my weirdest film conversation moments came while talking about The Warriors in my old college apartment, and one of my friends picked up some beer bottles, started clinking them on his fingers, and asked, "What's The Warriors?"
	4:11pm WM: If you liked the Walter Hill movie you should read the Sol Yurick 1965). The tone of the novel is very different from the film.
	4:11pm WM: If you liked the Walter Hill movie you should read the Sol Yurick 1965). The tone of the novel is very different from the film.
	4:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: So if it was set in the 1970s - what's the gangland film I remember where near the end a protagonist wanders into a Folk club & hears Dylan singing 'Times They Are A-Changing' to signify their stoopid street culture was out of time? Anyhow - stoopid street violence reigned again...
	4:12pm WM: Oops! Sorry for the duplication.
	♥ 4:13pm TDK60: Yeah, Chresti. These days it would probably be: So-and-So & the Should Be Pew Pew Lasers, featuring Guest So-and-So. \| I saw Fish Tank a few years back. Grim.
	🎸 ♥ 4:13pm Carmichael: The same guy who clinked the beer bottles was in Twin Peaks.
	4:14pm David in London: The Long Good Friday does a similar job for late Seventies London.
	4:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: West Side Story will ever be the greatest Rawk Opera.
	🎸 ♥ 4:15pm Bruce S.: RevRab63 thats the Wanderers
	♥ 4:15pm Scott67: G'day David, same day for you mate? 👍😎
	4:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ah Ha Thx BruceS! A knockoff...
	4:16pm Sean: only radio show/station that plays Subotnick that I know of. amazing
	♥ 4:16pm mariano: WM: I was very surprised when I learned that the novel was an adaptation of Xenophon's Anabasis, about a group of Greek mercenaries trapped behind enemy lines in Persia (during the rule of Cyrus), trying to make it home in one piece. Carmichael: That's David Patrick Kelly, great actor. He's had a bit part or two in other David Lynch stuff too. He was one of Juana's gang in Wild at Heart. The Long Good Friday! I need to watch that again. What a combo, Bob Hoskins and Helen Mirren.
	4:17pm Fabio: @David in London: Long Good Friday is an excellent gangster film. great acting by late Bob Hoskins & Helen Mirren (though she doesn't get as much screen time)
	♥ 4:18pm chris_in_space: At the risk of stating the obvious, another great film for a time-capsule version of an older New York is The French Connection.
	4:19pm David in London: Scotty, yes indeed, coming to the final stretch now. How are you mate? Mariano, there’s a crazy film called Duffer, which is kind of the proto-Eraserhead, and which captures 70s London decay really well, also. Might have to send that your way at some stage.
	🎸 ♥ 4:19pm Carmichael: The Ducky Boys ... And nobody f*cks with the Wongs!
	♥ 4:19pm HyperDose: What failure? This noise is splendid!
	🎸 ♥ 4:19pm chresti: Love The French Connection.
	♥ 4:20pm chris_in_space: @chresti: me too. It's so dark 'n dirty.
	🎸 ♥ 4:21pm Bruce S.: Favorite British gangster movies a tie Get Carter and Sexy Beast
	🎸 ♥ 4:23pm Bruce S.: Best NYC in the 70s movies Scorcece all the way with Mean Streets and Taxi Driver
	4:23pm WM: @mariano: Yes, I knew that about the Warriors. @Fabio: I read somewhere that Helen Mirren insisted on a rewritting and expansion of her character in LGF. Originally the role was more limited. This is one example of an actress insisting on a rewrite that actually imporved the film.
	🎸 ♥ 4:24pm Handy Haversack: The first Warrior to die, Tom G. Waites, also directed Kate's first NYC play because this is a very small town.
	♥ 4:25pm mariano: Yeah, I love French Connection. Another good 70s NYC flick is Marathon Man. Serpico and Dog Day Afternoon too. David: I'm not familiar with Duffer, I'll have to search it out, thanks. Oh and Biden just signed a bill making Juneteenth a national holiday!
	♥ 4:25pm chris_in_space: @Bruce S.: can't argue with you there
	4:25pm Androu B.: Howdy, Failure Folks! Just putting my 2 cents in about "The Warriors": Most memorable thing about the movie is that it stars Michael Beck, who would be seen on the big screen no less than a year later in "Xanadu". So obviously, Hollywood was working hard to sell his name to the moviegoing masses as the new, hot up-and-comer with promising star potential. But since "Xanadu" bombed big at the box office, he's barely been seen anywhere since, if at all.
	♥ 4:26pm βrian: Does that mean another paid day off for all of us? Coolest sounding holiday ever, in any case.
	4:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wow what a Monologue. Like Herzog reads Ginsberg, imitated by Bukowski ...er somethin' I dunno...
	♥ 4:28pm TDK60: Wertmuller is a troublemaker.
	♥ 4:29pm ChukAmok: 'Network' and 'Serpico' good depictions of NYC in the 70's. 'The Panic in Needle Park' also on that list.
	4:29pm David in London: Serpico! Around the same time as that and Dog Day, Lumet made a film here called The Offence, with Sean Connery in the closest he ever got to playing a baddie. It’s absolutely harrowing, with screeching electronic score by Harrison Birtwhistle. My mum told me that when she and my dad saw it in the early Seventies, the audience filed out at the end in utter silence.
	🎸 ♥ 4:29pm Bruce S.: Fabio, today's show is just really there
	4:30pm Miss G: Ahhh, 15 minutes of absorption! Glad to escape from trip-planning frantic-ness. @4:12 RRN63 the film you are mentioning is "The Wanderers." I tracked it down as a special film for a special friend (reminded him of his neighborhood.) Linda Manz: "Terrah! Ya joined tha AHHHMY!"
	🎸 ♥ 4:30pm chresti: Yay Juneteenth! Bandcamp too!
	♥ 4:31pm chris in the redwoods: wonder what teachers in Texas are going to do with this new holiday. "teacher, what's this holiday about? i could tell you, but they'd put me in jail, dear student."
	♥ 4:31pm Scott67: David, slowly coming back to life after a coffee. Was up at 5:30am today, it's 6:30am now, still dark & cold.🍵😎
	♥ 4:31pm mariano: Androu: James Remar (Ajax) was about the only breakout star from Warriors. I think he's been working steadily ever since. David: I'm a sucker for Lumet. There's a good one from around 1990 called Q&A with Nick Nolte as arguably the most evil corrupt cop in moviedom. Only complaint is that it has this horrible opening track. Didn't know about The Offence though, you're full of good recommendations today.
	🎸 ♥ 4:31pm Lixiviated Life: @Handy Haversack It's rated 5.3 (3 stars in the D Williams guide). It's past Four Horsemen and UberFalls. Before Beginners Delight
	♥ 4:32pm mariano: Speaking of Lumet, even though it came out in 1980, I still consider it a 70s NYC cop flick: Prince of the City.
	4:33pm More U Know: Seven Beauties opening theme composed by Enzo Jannacci, (lyrics by Lina) according to Wikipedia & other sources
	4:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Fascism is an Italian word yerknow.
	♥ 4:34pm mariano: Only complaint I have with Prince of the City is that one of the characters is a dynamic, idealistic young prosecutor who's obviously supposed to be Giuliani.
	🎸 ♥ 4:34pm Jason from Houston: WE DO THE CRIMES, chris in the redwoods.
	🎸 ♥ 4:34pm Bruce S.: The Prisnonr of second avenue is a good one too
	♥ 4:34pm Scott67: You guys are talking about all the gritty films I love. Something about that era of grime, graffiti, garbage & film grain. Makes for Cinèma Vèritè, when viewing now. 👍
	🎸 ♥ 4:34pm chresti: @chris in redwoods, "...or shoot me"
	4:34pm tom tom the pipers son: does anyone remember the warriors inspired bicycle contest that started in the bronx and ended in coney island. i can remember the electric vikings with lit up horns on their helmets and lights on their bicycles. must have been 2002, hard to believe
	♥ 4:35pm ChukAmok: @mariano what about David Patrick Kelly and his post-Warriors career with Spike Lee and David Lynch?
	♥ 4:35pm chris in the redwoods: bless you, Jason! <3 solidarity!
	♥ 4:35pm Scott67: The Codger has hired an Upstairs Stomper to hassle you!
	🎸 ♥ 4:37pm chresti: An upstairs?
	🎸 ♥ 4:37pm Jason from Houston: Additionally, that holiday has been celebrated for decades. Turning it into a way for white folks to have the day off work is lame.
	🎸 ♥ 4:37pm Lixiviated Life: @Handy Haversack It's a 3 pitch climb with 2 traverses to the right. You'll need the typical Gunks setup (standard 60 meter rope and gear)
	♥ 4:37pm ChukAmok: @tomtomTPS That was The Warriors Alleycat!
	4:39pm tom tom the pipers son: oh thats what it was called...
	🎸 ♥ 4:40pm Bruce S.: Where's popa? and bye bye braverman should be seen as well
	4:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...more importantly - what can we sell for Juneteenth ...& we're still gonna have cops kill ya course...
	🎸 ♥ 4:41pm Jason from Houston: Juneteenth in Fort Worth, 1976: emuseum.mfah.org...
	🎸 ♥ 4:41pm Bruce S.: Also early De palma movies Greeting and Hi Mom
	4:42pm Miss G: Bruce S. the aforementioned friend would think me amiss if I didn't say he loved "Little Murders" from that period.
	♥ 4:42pm ChukAmok: @BruceS 'Hi Mom' is so good. Great call.
	🎸 ♥ 4:43pm Bruce S.: @ Miss G absolutly! thank you
	🎸 ♥ 4:43pm Jason from Houston: Miss Juneteenth, Fort Worth, 1984: emuseum.mfah.org...
	🎸 ♥ 4:44pm Handy Haversack: @Lix, ah, thanks -- a real climb. For some reason, my brain was interpreting as "steep hike," even though I know the Gunks are famous for climbing. We would definitely have to work up to that! In other news, I just made Raspberry Collinses with our backyard chaos berries, and they are really, really good.
	4:46pm rev. turnip druid: who has carrot cake?
	🎸 ♥ 4:46pm Bruce S.: Handy, your always doing something really interesting
	🎸 ♥ 4:46pm Carmichael: David in London brought some, RTD. It was magnificent!
	🎸 ♥ 4:46pm Handy Haversack: David has! David has carrot cake this time! It's, er, in London. I assume.
	🎸 ♥ 4:46pm Bas NL: David said he did Rev!
	♥ 4:47pm mariano: ChuckAmok: That's right, I forgot that DPK was in some Spike Lee movies. He was also one of the bad guys in 48 Hours (opposite James Remar), also directed by Walter Hill.
	♥ 4:48pm ChukAmok: @HH the back way (off-trail) up Breakneck ridge could be described as a steep hike and/or rocky scramble. Pretty fun and no ropes required (but some good shoes recommended).
	4:49pm fm Mike: Afternoon People!
	4:49pm Miss G: mariano, my former husband taught DPK at karate school back in the day. He said he was a super nice guy.
	🎸 ♥ 4:49pm Handy Haversack: Ha, thanks, Bruce S. Kate and I had just said, basically, "Another success! Why do all our best ideas revolve around booze?" I just read a Cuban SF book about a sentient robot obsessed with Raymond Chandler trying to use 48 Hours to catch a space criminal to prevent the aliens from abandoning Earth and mankind forever. So that movie has legs! We have definitely had to use our hands on hikes around there, ChukAmok. The dog loves it for some reason!
	4:49pm rev. turnip druid: DANG. Missed that SPK piece. Total flashback, that. Nth-generation dubs of old VHS tapes of that material with autopsy footage, circa 198?… jolly days…
	🎸 ♥ 4:49pm Bruce S.: You know I think the Goodbye Girl was or is a good NYC 70s movei too
	♥ 4:49pm chris in the redwoods: three pitches is no joke. my son is building climbing walls in Hackensack for a few more weeks. will ask if he ventured up to the Gunks.
	4:50pm David in London: Evening Reverend. I saved you a piece of the carrot cake.
	🎸 ♥ 4:51pm Handy Haversack: There's a climbing gym in LIC, Queens. I went there last weekend to pick up some donated rope for canoes. Everyone was very, very fit. And young. I felt like beer spilled ON a pastrami sandwich, abandoned on the sidewalk outside.
	🎸 ♥ 4:53pm Bas NL: Great set growing here Fabio!
	4:53pm Gnomon: Thank you Fabio, today’s show was exactly what I needed to wake up to.
	4:53pm rev. turnip druid: EXCELLENT, David I.L. … i may be an atheist/false reverend* but carrot cake WILL guarantee thee a seat in paradise. *false reverend but legit turnip
	♥ 4:55pm TDK60: Mmm..Handy. A hot pastrami sandwich on seeded rye bread with cole slaw, mustard and pickle, please! (Seitan pastrami of course)
	♥ 4:56pm chris in the redwoods: my under six foot stature and excess belly hear you, Handy.
	🎸 ♥ 4:56pm Bruce S.: It's either seitan or satan
	4:57pm Gnomon: I was planning on going through part of the NWW List and you’re doing it for me
	🎸 ♥ 4:57pm Handy Haversack: Oh, wow, seitan pastrami! Science, PLEASE get on that! When I went vegetarian, I didn't miss a beat at this ridiculously wonderful deli I lived near. I just kept ordering the Black Forest sandwiches but without the meat. They were still to insanely large to eat.
	🎸 ♥ 4:57pm Handy Haversack: ^o
	♥ 4:57pm mariano: Miss G: That's good to hear. It's always heartwarming when movie baddies turn out to be nice people. Handy: Yes, but you're Katz's pastrami, never forget that.
	4:58pm fm Mike: @Handy Haversack, what was the name of the book??? Also that "beer spilled on a Pastrami Sandwich" is a good metaphor lol. Those black forest sandwiches sound goood!
	♥ 4:59pm TDK60: There oughta be a band called NWW List. Except these days it would be: So-and-so w/the NWW List featuring Addendum.
	🎸 ♥ 5:00pm Bruce S.: this is great Fabio thanks
	🎸 ♥ 5:00pm Handy Haversack: Hey, fm Mike! How did we miss each other last week at the gathering? It was Red Dust, by Yoss: restlessbooks.org...
	🎸 ♥ 5:01pm chresti: Haha TDK60.
	5:01pm fm Mike: @Handy I skyped in with LCBD! I gave everyone a wave :)
	5:04pm Miss G: Wow, I put in the headphones for these pieces, great. The scent of the decaying peonies in the vase getting stronger. The blue fairy lights I put up to test for a party glowing behind them. Perfection.
	🎸 ♥ 5:06pm Bruce S.: Do people in Mount Hope actualy call the station WMFU? and what happens if they don't?
	🎸 ♥ 5:06pm chresti: Yay, party at Miss Gs!
	♥ 5:06pm Megaroni: The art of failure with our Super cool host, Fab!
	🎸 ♥ 5:07pm Jason from Houston: I love all of you dirty commies so very much. ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎
	♥ 5:08pm chris in the redwoods: Fabio, i can say with total certainly i am enjoying your selections today. always stuff i've never heard and want to hear more often.
	5:13pm Miss G: chresti, I would love to have all y'all over for a party! In the aughts I was part of an online hobby that had meetups in Manhattan, people came from all over. Was so fun.
	🎸 ♥ 5:14pm Handy Haversack: Jason, back at you, Comrade.
	5:15pm Fabio: @ Miss G: I'll second that -- met Mr. Kelly years ago at a party, he was very nice, soft spoken, intelligent, very unassuming and a gentleman.
	♥ 5:16pm chris in the redwoods: yup, its mutual and equally apportioned, Jason.
	5:22pm Miss G: re: Mr. Kelly I should add, that Seido Karate is point fighting, not smash in the face fighting. <the real purpose of this martial art is cultivation of character.>
	🎸 ♥ 5:29pm Bruce S.: Really into this set Fabio
	5:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Like Horror Movie people traditionally have often turned out to be especially unpretentious & appreciative & charitable & stuff... & perhaps something akin in the HeavyMetal community (altho' Rawkers can't be bet on)...
	🎸 ♥ 5:34pm Handy Haversack: Giving away Clay's Gremlin! Fabio, you devious mastermind!
	🎸 ♥ 5:34pm chresti: Jason, backatcha! Miss G, sounds like fun! We went to our first post-pandemic party a couple of weeks ago (everyone vaxxed) outside at a friend's spectacular Altadena home. I have a feeling there will be many parties and get togethers in the coming year.
	🎸 ♥ 5:35pm Handy Haversack: chresti, was it fun -- and exhausting? That Glistener Glathering last week was a total blast -- and I could have slept for a year afterward.
	🎸 ♥ 5:38pm chresti: Handy, it was! Much good food and company, and yes, exhausting.
	5:39pm Miss G: I'm exhausted already from packing -- I'm afraid I'll bring 3 sweaters and 0 toothbrush. (Do y'all still be getting swag? I fear mine will arrive when I'm gone. . .)
	🎸 ♥ 5:40pm chresti: Where are you going, Miss G?
	5:41pm Miss G: chresti, a few hours away in Virginia, it's just I haven't slept overnight anywhere in forever!
	♥ 5:41pm chris in the redwoods: Miss G, maybe you could contact Joe McG to put a hold on your swag, if that's a thing?
	5:41pm David in London: Is it the Gremlin with the denim interior and the built-in flowbee?
	🎸 ♥ 5:43pm Bruce S.: I don't want denim interior,it would be to much denim
	5:43pm Miss G: Thank you chris, you make me realize, I should put a note on the door of the nice young man down the hall (who wakes me up every night when he comes home from his restaurant job <G>)
	5:44pm rev. turnip druid: ooh. this.
	🎸 ♥ 5:44pm Bruce S.: I'm finding it pleasurable to say Denim
	5:44pm rev. turnip druid: i mean, everything else as well. but ooh. this.
	🎸 ♥ 5:45pm Carmichael: Has anyone mentioned Panic in Needle Park?
	🎸 ♥ 5:46pm chresti: I've never seen Panic in Needle Park.
	🎸 ♥ 5:46pm Handy Haversack: Carmichael, surely someone must have -- at some point someone must have said something!
	🎸 ♥ 5:47pm Bruce S.: Good one Carmichael
	5:49pm Miss G: And since Fabio played OST from Klute last week (week before?) i'll say that it has some great street scenes. And the last scene in the huge garment district space brought back a lot of memories!
	🎸 ♥ 5:49pm chresti: I've seen panics in other parks, though.
	♥ 5:51pm chris in the redwoods: i have not seen or heard of that one, Carm. but it sounds absolutely horrifying.
	🎸 ♥ 5:51pm chresti: *panic
	🎸 ♥ 5:52pm Bruce S.: Panic in Needle park definitly has the vibe
	♥ 5:53pm Jeff Golick: THIS SET
	5:53pm Fredericks: My understanding is Jagger plays the main intro riff on this song.
	🎸 ♥ 5:54pm dale: hey fablio. been enjoying the cacophony offline.

	♥ 5:54pm chris in the redwoods: all killer no filler, Fabio. grazie mille!
	5:54pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Midnight Mile ❤️
	♥ 5:55pm Jeff Golick: Has anyone seen "Report from the Commissioner?" I haven't, but wonder about it.
	🎸 ♥ 5:55pm chresti: Thanks Fabio! Enjoyed every minute!
	🎸 ♥ 5:55pm Bruce S.: Fabio, thanks so much, really enjoyed it ,good week
	🎸 ♥ 5:55pm Handy Haversack: There's a bar in my neighborhood that takes its name from "Moonlight Mile" -- run by a rocker and all-around good dude! Thanks, Fabio! Great show today. Very glad to have caught it. Later on, you beautiful failures.
	♥ 5:55pm HyperDose: Thanks Fablio..sorry it's a reflex at this point, FABio! This was a great soundtrack to eat post-workout chicken patties to!
	5:55pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Thank you Fabio
	5:56pm Miss G: What a show! Can't wait to check the archive for what I missed when I get back from my trip to family. Thank you Fabio, and all y'all, have a wonderful weekend.
	♥ 5:56pm mariano: Thank you, Fabio!
	♥ 5:56pm slugluv1313: Moonlight Mile <3 <3 <3 THANK YOU FABIO! been listening, lurking, while working . . . amazing show, and this song -- damn, has been so freaking "healing" (for lack of a better description!) for yikes! 50 years!
	🎸 ♥ 5:56pm Bas NL: Great show Fabio! Thank you!
	5:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: That'll do nicely. TY Mr. DJ Fabio Sir.
	🎸 ♥ 5:57pm dale: this part sounds like popul vuh rocking out.
	🎸 ♥ 5:58pm chresti: Have a nice trip Miss G! I should be making the trip to SF Bay area in the next month or so.
	🎸 ♥ 5:58pm Bruce S.: I kind of miss the Old Codger now, but i'll get over it
	5:58pm David in London: Thanks Fabio, terrific show as usual. Good night folks.
	♥ 5:59pm slugluv1313: and yes, i remember wanting to see Panic in Needle Park when it was released! but was too young (and parens did not take us to the movies anyway) . . . iirc, it was not on DVD for years?? but have not been able to bring myself to watch it -- TERRIFYING, but that poor puppy
	5:59pm Miss G: Oh, thank you chresti! I'm sad I'll have to listen to GenKen on Sunday in the archive. I know you'll have a great trip to SF area!
	♥ 5:59pm Rich in Washington: I predict big things for these Rolly Stone Boys.
	5:59pm ?: Fabio. Thanks 4 🐩🎶🎶🎶🎶

	🎸 ♥ 3:12pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: ah rhys. i was guessing krautrock. which maybe isn't totally wrong?
	🎸 ♥ 3:17pm Threemoons: HI HO!
	🎸 ♥ 3:18pm Bas NL: Hi Fabio! Hi All! November i'll be attending a The Necks concert. :D
	♥ 3:18pm David (in London): enters The Lounge of Failure late, sits down right on top of Mariano's tricorn hat, squashes it flat, gets up and sidles away unnoticed Hello groovers!
	3:18pm Wfmu Listener Phillip: Ahhh😊 I feel so much better that @fabio is here for another Thursday😊
	🎸 ♥ 3:19pm Bruce S.: I'm likeing vertigo
	♥ 3:21pm mariano: 'Evening, David! No worries about the hat, I'll have my footman pick me up a new one at the hatter's.
	🎸 ♥ 3:23pm Threemoons: Speaking of failures...per political convo this AM; just had a kid canvassing for Van Bremer buzz me to try to get into my building. I freaking hate that. I always vote for the candidate I want regardless but I always tell these pests that I will never vote for a candidate whose campaign calls me or tries to knock on my door/get into my building.
	🎸 ♥ 3:23pm chresti: Hi Fabio and strong ears!
	🎸 ♥ 3:24pm Bruce S.: I think it's calledcanvasing, they all do it
	🎸 ♥ 3:25pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: these guys are so good every time
	🎸 ♥ 3:26pm Threemoons: @ Bruce S I still hate it--and there is a huge fucking NO SOLICITING sign in both of my building's vestibule windows.
	🎸 ♥ 3:28pm Bruce S.: I know it's really annoying,like being on the no call list and still geting those stupid calls
	🎸 ♥ 3:29pm Handy Haversack: Your calendar is filling up, Bas! David, don't let him stick you with the bill -- that was only his fourth-best tricorn!
	🎸 ♥ 3:31pm Bas NL: nods feverishly
	🎸 ♥ 3:32pm Handy Haversack: (Though if you sit on his fife, you'll be whistling a different tune!)
	♥ 3:32pm David (in London): Handy, fourth best!? I should have pilfered his cape, too. H, M, Bas, 3M, Chresti, TDK, Rev D, Robm, Carmichael, Ken et al. Greetings good people. I have carrot cake in case the Reverend is lurking.
	🎸 ♥ 3:33pm Bas NL: Hi David!
	🎸 ♥ 3:33pm chresti: Hi David!
	🎸 ♥ 3:34pm Bas NL: SPK!
	🎸 ♥ 3:34pm Bruce S.: Oldie but goodie
	♥ 3:35pm mariano: There are limits to my indulgence when someone impugns the handiwork of one of the great modistes and perruquiers of New Orleans.
	♥ 3:35pm chris in the redwoods: hello, Fabio and friendly folks failing to fail.
	3:37pm blackbodegabag: nice, nothing like a little SPK on a sunny afternoon
	♥ 3:37pm TDK60: Hiya David in Londonstoke, Chresti in San Gabriel. \| I want a Republican canvasser to come to my pad. Over coffee I'll hypnotize them into my leftist troublemaker cell.
	🎸 ♥ 3:37pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: waiting patiently for my next clicky star
	🎸 ♥ 3:39pm chresti: Hiya TDK60 in the Heights!
	3:39pm chair: Hi Fab can you queue up Socialist by PIL sometime this set? No presh and thank you!!
	🎸 ♥ 3:40pm Bruce S.: Inviting a canvaser in for coffee,could be asking for a little trouble
	♥ 3:40pm TDK60: I recall when a pal first turned me onto SPK, a tape. A bit scary. Hunting Lodge was on the other side.
	3:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah. I've seen - & I'm in smalltown NewHampshuh - people put signs on their doors saying 'It's OK - we're Liberals/Demos, we got this one, Thanks'... Things about it is: Come Election Day, it's all down to Numbers & getting people to that Poll to mark the box. Which is why mail-in ballots & longer hours or days to Vote - & more places to do it - are what Democracy in the USA are all teetering on Right Now... & yerknow IDs & gerrymandering (candidates choosing voters instead of other way around...) &tc.
	3:43pm Smog on the Tyne: Hello you lovely lot from a bright and sunny Northern England!
	♥ 3:45pm David (in London): How do Smoggy Tynester, from a damp Smoke.
	🎸 ♥ 3:45pm Bruce S.: RevRab63 perfect accompaniement to the music thanks
	🎸 ♥ 3:45pm chresti: Do the Repubbs even canvas? I thought they just made robo-calls.
	🎸 ♥ 3:46pm Handy Haversack: I think we'll vote day-of. The early-voting place is a convenient ferry ride away -- except both ferry piers involved are now closed because of corruption, incompetence, and greed. Which means either a 40-min. walk or driving to a place with no parking or I guess maybe one bus would get us within a few blocks? But day-of, it's a two block-walk and the dog can come along, which he enjoys.
	3:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...if we got Money Crapitalism out of Civic Elections - so it's less like continuous Advertising blitz - that might help as well...
	🎸 ♥ 3:47pm Threemoons: @HH ditto, I live v close to my day of voting place.
	🎸 ♥ 3:48pm Handy Haversack: Threemoons, my friend and his boys are excited for a trip to Gamestoria!
	3:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Must admit I like marking the box & feeding the machine with my ballot - some illusion of certainty I suppose - & an outing if I'm honest. Early Nov. also has my Birthday - so that ♏︎Scorpio Collective Power trip & all...
	🎸 ♥ 3:49pm Bruce S.: Really important mayoral election in NYC this year. I feel like we are at a cross road
	🎸 ♥ 3:51pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: honest question is there any republican with a chance to win mayor? i feel like i have only heard about the dem primary with the assumption that whoever gets it will be the next mayor
	🎸 ♥ 3:52pm Bruce S.: Curtis sliwa is not going to be mayor, no way
	🎸 ♥ 3:55pm Bruce S.: and the brooklyn democratic polical machine which Eric Adams is a member of
	🎸 ♥ 3:56pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: i heard his name (Silwa) a few times, checked out his website and realized there's just no fucking way this guy has a chance right? like, just look at his "policies"
	🎸 ♥ 3:56pm Bruce S.: By the way excellent set Fabio
	🎸 ♥ 3:56pm Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen: is he the republican favorite? he can't be right?
	🎸 ♥ 3:56pm Handy Haversack: Rev Rab, NYC had the coolest voting machines, with little switches and a BIG RED HANDLE. When you voted with that thing, you felt like you'd really done something. I was sad to see them go.
	🎸 ♥ 3:56pm Lixiviated Life: I climbed a route in the Gunks called "Three Pines" It was thriling. I think there's only 2 pines left.
	🎸 ♥ 3:57pm Threemoons: @HH glad that I could help out! :)
	🎸 ♥ 3:57pm Handy Haversack: Where is that route, Lix? We like the Gunks a lot and will be nearby later this month.
	🎸 ♥ 3:57pm Bas NL: Sounds like a slot machine, Handy.
	🎸 ♥ 3:58pm Threemoons: @HH I MISS those old skool voting machines. I remember being taken to vote with my Mom when I was maybe 3 years old; she explained the whole process to me. Something SO SATISFYING about the ratchety KLANG to close the curtain and then that feeling of accomplishment when you pulled it back!
	🎸 ♥ 3:58pm Handy Haversack: Slot machines used to be cool, too! Now those are all digital also. It's a shite state of affairs.
	🎸 ♥ 3:59pm Threemoons: Fun factoid: That old skool voting machine lever noise was one of the many random noises used for the sound effects of the original Star Wars movie (before they put out that beshitted "enhanced" version).
	🎸 ♥ 3:59pm Bas NL: Jackpot: Four-years-in-a-row!
	🎸 ♥ 4:00pm Lixiviated Life: So I'm gone for a few weeks and this is what I come back to? (I wonder what's on WBAI now?)
	4:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Don't know NYC - but of course this is the thing: Republicans have known for a long time that their Policies put them increasingly in the Minority. So - actual Democracy cannot be their electoral strategy. They need only double down on their base to turn them out - whereas being 'Liberal' by definition means tolerance of broader views & a challenge more like herding cats - despite our clear & ever-expanding Majority. It's clear that Government isn't keeping up with Majority opinion. The USA will become more of a Democracy - or something else now. I lost real interest in Star Wars by 1977 - but their intent to make it a 'lived-in' Futurism was an interesting point - & remember hearing much about their organic approach to Sound FX. Thwacking telephone pole restraint cables for pew-pew lasers for example...
	♥ 4:07pm TDK60: Is there a band called Pew Pew Lasers? Should be.
	🎸 ♥ 4:09pm chresti: The Should Be Pew Pew Lasers.
	4:09pm Brian in New Orleans: that clicking bottle scene was improvised...at least the clicking..."Warriors....come out and plaaaay"
	🎸 ♥ 4:09pm The Oscar: Afternoon! My favorite scene in the Warriors is at the end when the prom kids get on the subway across from them, and the two parties awkwardly stare each other down. I've been on both sides of that exchange many times.
	♥ 4:10pm mariano: Not a big fan of the director's cut with the added comic-book graphics, but The Warriors has been a favorite since I first saw it way back when I was 8 or 9. One of my absolute favorite opening sequences in any movie, and yeah, it's a great tour of 70s NYC. That's the real Gangs of New York.
	♥ 4:10pm Scott67: G'day Fab & Strong Ones! ✌😎🌏🌻
	🎸 ♥ 4:11pm The Oscar: Also one of my weirdest film conversation moments came while talking about The Warriors in my old college apartment, and one of my friends picked up some beer bottles, started clinking them on his fingers, and asked, "What's The Warriors?"
	4:11pm WM: If you liked the Walter Hill movie you should read the Sol Yurick 1965). The tone of the novel is very different from the film.
	4:11pm WM: If you liked the Walter Hill movie you should read the Sol Yurick 1965). The tone of the novel is very different from the film.
	4:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: So if it was set in the 1970s - what's the gangland film I remember where near the end a protagonist wanders into a Folk club & hears Dylan singing 'Times They Are A-Changing' to signify their stoopid street culture was out of time? Anyhow - stoopid street violence reigned again...
	4:12pm WM: Oops! Sorry for the duplication.
	♥ 4:13pm TDK60: Yeah, Chresti. These days it would probably be: So-and-So & the Should Be Pew Pew Lasers, featuring Guest So-and-So. \| I saw Fish Tank a few years back. Grim.
	🎸 ♥ 4:13pm Carmichael: The same guy who clinked the beer bottles was in Twin Peaks.
	4:14pm David in London: The Long Good Friday does a similar job for late Seventies London.
	4:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: West Side Story will ever be the greatest Rawk Opera.
	🎸 ♥ 4:15pm Bruce S.: RevRab63 thats the Wanderers
	♥ 4:15pm Scott67: G'day David, same day for you mate? 👍😎
	4:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ah Ha Thx BruceS! A knockoff...
	4:16pm Sean: only radio show/station that plays Subotnick that I know of. amazing
	♥ 4:16pm mariano: WM: I was very surprised when I learned that the novel was an adaptation of Xenophon's Anabasis, about a group of Greek mercenaries trapped behind enemy lines in Persia (during the rule of Cyrus), trying to make it home in one piece. Carmichael: That's David Patrick Kelly, great actor. He's had a bit part or two in other David Lynch stuff too. He was one of Juana's gang in Wild at Heart. The Long Good Friday! I need to watch that again. What a combo, Bob Hoskins and Helen Mirren.
	4:17pm Fabio: @David in London: Long Good Friday is an excellent gangster film. great acting by late Bob Hoskins & Helen Mirren (though she doesn't get as much screen time)
	♥ 4:18pm chris_in_space: At the risk of stating the obvious, another great film for a time-capsule version of an older New York is The French Connection.
	4:19pm David in London: Scotty, yes indeed, coming to the final stretch now. How are you mate? Mariano, there’s a crazy film called Duffer, which is kind of the proto-Eraserhead, and which captures 70s London decay really well, also. Might have to send that your way at some stage.
	🎸 ♥ 4:19pm Carmichael: The Ducky Boys ... And nobody f*cks with the Wongs!
	♥ 4:19pm HyperDose: What failure? This noise is splendid!
	🎸 ♥ 4:19pm chresti: Love The French Connection.
	♥ 4:20pm chris_in_space: @chresti: me too. It's so dark 'n dirty.
	🎸 ♥ 4:21pm Bruce S.: Favorite British gangster movies a tie Get Carter and Sexy Beast
	🎸 ♥ 4:23pm Bruce S.: Best NYC in the 70s movies Scorcece all the way with Mean Streets and Taxi Driver
	4:23pm WM: @mariano: Yes, I knew that about the Warriors. @Fabio: I read somewhere that Helen Mirren insisted on a rewritting and expansion of her character in LGF. Originally the role was more limited. This is one example of an actress insisting on a rewrite that actually imporved the film.
	🎸 ♥ 4:24pm Handy Haversack: The first Warrior to die, Tom G. Waites, also directed Kate's first NYC play because this is a very small town.
	♥ 4:25pm mariano: Yeah, I love French Connection. Another good 70s NYC flick is Marathon Man. Serpico and Dog Day Afternoon too. David: I'm not familiar with Duffer, I'll have to search it out, thanks. Oh and Biden just signed a bill making Juneteenth a national holiday!
	♥ 4:25pm chris_in_space: @Bruce S.: can't argue with you there
	4:25pm Androu B.: Howdy, Failure Folks! Just putting my 2 cents in about "The Warriors": Most memorable thing about the movie is that it stars Michael Beck, who would be seen on the big screen no less than a year later in "Xanadu". So obviously, Hollywood was working hard to sell his name to the moviegoing masses as the new, hot up-and-comer with promising star potential. But since "Xanadu" bombed big at the box office, he's barely been seen anywhere since, if at all.
	♥ 4:26pm βrian: Does that mean another paid day off for all of us? Coolest sounding holiday ever, in any case.
	4:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wow what a Monologue. Like Herzog reads Ginsberg, imitated by Bukowski ...er somethin' I dunno...
	♥ 4:28pm TDK60: Wertmuller is a troublemaker.
	♥ 4:29pm ChukAmok: 'Network' and 'Serpico' good depictions of NYC in the 70's. 'The Panic in Needle Park' also on that list.
	4:29pm David in London: Serpico! Around the same time as that and Dog Day, Lumet made a film here called The Offence, with Sean Connery in the closest he ever got to playing a baddie. It’s absolutely harrowing, with screeching electronic score by Harrison Birtwhistle. My mum told me that when she and my dad saw it in the early Seventies, the audience filed out at the end in utter silence.
	🎸 ♥ 4:29pm Bruce S.: Fabio, today's show is just really there
	4:30pm Miss G: Ahhh, 15 minutes of absorption! Glad to escape from trip-planning frantic-ness. @4:12 RRN63 the film you are mentioning is "The Wanderers." I tracked it down as a special film for a special friend (reminded him of his neighborhood.) Linda Manz: "Terrah! Ya joined tha AHHHMY!"
	🎸 ♥ 4:30pm chresti: Yay Juneteenth! Bandcamp too!
	♥ 4:31pm chris in the redwoods: wonder what teachers in Texas are going to do with this new holiday. "teacher, what's this holiday about? i could tell you, but they'd put me in jail, dear student."
	♥ 4:31pm Scott67: David, slowly coming back to life after a coffee. Was up at 5:30am today, it's 6:30am now, still dark & cold.🍵😎
	♥ 4:31pm mariano: Androu: James Remar (Ajax) was about the only breakout star from Warriors. I think he's been working steadily ever since. David: I'm a sucker for Lumet. There's a good one from around 1990 called Q&A with Nick Nolte as arguably the most evil corrupt cop in moviedom. Only complaint is that it has this horrible opening track. Didn't know about The Offence though, you're full of good recommendations today.
	🎸 ♥ 4:31pm Lixiviated Life: @Handy Haversack It's rated 5.3 (3 stars in the D Williams guide). It's past Four Horsemen and UberFalls. Before Beginners Delight
	♥ 4:32pm mariano: Speaking of Lumet, even though it came out in 1980, I still consider it a 70s NYC cop flick: Prince of the City.
	4:33pm More U Know: Seven Beauties opening theme composed by Enzo Jannacci, (lyrics by Lina) according to Wikipedia & other sources
	4:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Fascism is an Italian word yerknow.
	♥ 4:34pm mariano: Only complaint I have with Prince of the City is that one of the characters is a dynamic, idealistic young prosecutor who's obviously supposed to be Giuliani.
	🎸 ♥ 4:34pm Jason from Houston: WE DO THE CRIMES, chris in the redwoods.
	🎸 ♥ 4:34pm Bruce S.: The Prisnonr of second avenue is a good one too
	♥ 4:34pm Scott67: You guys are talking about all the gritty films I love. Something about that era of grime, graffiti, garbage & film grain. Makes for Cinèma Vèritè, when viewing now. 👍
	🎸 ♥ 4:34pm chresti: @chris in redwoods, "...or shoot me"
	4:34pm tom tom the pipers son: does anyone remember the warriors inspired bicycle contest that started in the bronx and ended in coney island. i can remember the electric vikings with lit up horns on their helmets and lights on their bicycles. must have been 2002, hard to believe
	♥ 4:35pm ChukAmok: @mariano what about David Patrick Kelly and his post-Warriors career with Spike Lee and David Lynch?
	♥ 4:35pm chris in the redwoods: bless you, Jason! <3 solidarity!
	♥ 4:35pm Scott67: The Codger has hired an Upstairs Stomper to hassle you!
	🎸 ♥ 4:37pm chresti: An upstairs?
	🎸 ♥ 4:37pm Jason from Houston: Additionally, that holiday has been celebrated for decades. Turning it into a way for white folks to have the day off work is lame.
	🎸 ♥ 4:37pm Lixiviated Life: @Handy Haversack It's a 3 pitch climb with 2 traverses to the right. You'll need the typical Gunks setup (standard 60 meter rope and gear)
	♥ 4:37pm ChukAmok: @tomtomTPS That was The Warriors Alleycat!
	4:39pm tom tom the pipers son: oh thats what it was called...
	🎸 ♥ 4:40pm Bruce S.: Where's popa? and bye bye braverman should be seen as well
	4:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...more importantly - what can we sell for Juneteenth ...& we're still gonna have cops kill ya course...
	🎸 ♥ 4:41pm Jason from Houston: Juneteenth in Fort Worth, 1976: emuseum.mfah.org...
	🎸 ♥ 4:41pm Bruce S.: Also early De palma movies Greeting and Hi Mom
	4:42pm Miss G: Bruce S. the aforementioned friend would think me amiss if I didn't say he loved "Little Murders" from that period.
	♥ 4:42pm ChukAmok: @BruceS 'Hi Mom' is so good. Great call.
	🎸 ♥ 4:43pm Bruce S.: @ Miss G absolutly! thank you
	🎸 ♥ 4:43pm Jason from Houston: Miss Juneteenth, Fort Worth, 1984: emuseum.mfah.org...
	🎸 ♥ 4:44pm Handy Haversack: @Lix, ah, thanks -- a real climb. For some reason, my brain was interpreting as "steep hike," even though I know the Gunks are famous for climbing. We would definitely have to work up to that! In other news, I just made Raspberry Collinses with our backyard chaos berries, and they are really, really good.
	4:46pm rev. turnip druid: who has carrot cake?
	🎸 ♥ 4:46pm Bruce S.: Handy, your always doing something really interesting
	🎸 ♥ 4:46pm Carmichael: David in London brought some, RTD. It was magnificent!
	🎸 ♥ 4:46pm Handy Haversack: David has! David has carrot cake this time! It's, er, in London. I assume.
	🎸 ♥ 4:46pm Bas NL: David said he did Rev!
	♥ 4:47pm mariano: ChuckAmok: That's right, I forgot that DPK was in some Spike Lee movies. He was also one of the bad guys in 48 Hours (opposite James Remar), also directed by Walter Hill.
	♥ 4:48pm ChukAmok: @HH the back way (off-trail) up Breakneck ridge could be described as a steep hike and/or rocky scramble. Pretty fun and no ropes required (but some good shoes recommended).
	4:49pm fm Mike: Afternoon People!
	4:49pm Miss G: mariano, my former husband taught DPK at karate school back in the day. He said he was a super nice guy.
	🎸 ♥ 4:49pm Handy Haversack: Ha, thanks, Bruce S. Kate and I had just said, basically, "Another success! Why do all our best ideas revolve around booze?" I just read a Cuban SF book about a sentient robot obsessed with Raymond Chandler trying to use 48 Hours to catch a space criminal to prevent the aliens from abandoning Earth and mankind forever. So that movie has legs! We have definitely had to use our hands on hikes around there, ChukAmok. The dog loves it for some reason!
	4:49pm rev. turnip druid: DANG. Missed that SPK piece. Total flashback, that. Nth-generation dubs of old VHS tapes of that material with autopsy footage, circa 198?… jolly days…
	🎸 ♥ 4:49pm Bruce S.: You know I think the Goodbye Girl was or is a good NYC 70s movei too
	♥ 4:49pm chris in the redwoods: three pitches is no joke. my son is building climbing walls in Hackensack for a few more weeks. will ask if he ventured up to the Gunks.
	4:50pm David in London: Evening Reverend. I saved you a piece of the carrot cake.
	🎸 ♥ 4:51pm Handy Haversack: There's a climbing gym in LIC, Queens. I went there last weekend to pick up some donated rope for canoes. Everyone was very, very fit. And young. I felt like beer spilled ON a pastrami sandwich, abandoned on the sidewalk outside.
	🎸 ♥ 4:53pm Bas NL: Great set growing here Fabio!
	4:53pm Gnomon: Thank you Fabio, today’s show was exactly what I needed to wake up to.
	4:53pm rev. turnip druid: EXCELLENT, David I.L. … i may be an atheist/false reverend* but carrot cake WILL guarantee thee a seat in paradise. *false reverend but legit turnip
	♥ 4:55pm TDK60: Mmm..Handy. A hot pastrami sandwich on seeded rye bread with cole slaw, mustard and pickle, please! (Seitan pastrami of course)
	♥ 4:56pm chris in the redwoods: my under six foot stature and excess belly hear you, Handy.
	🎸 ♥ 4:56pm Bruce S.: It's either seitan or satan
	4:57pm Gnomon: I was planning on going through part of the NWW List and you’re doing it for me
	🎸 ♥ 4:57pm Handy Haversack: Oh, wow, seitan pastrami! Science, PLEASE get on that! When I went vegetarian, I didn't miss a beat at this ridiculously wonderful deli I lived near. I just kept ordering the Black Forest sandwiches but without the meat. They were still to insanely large to eat.
	🎸 ♥ 4:57pm Handy Haversack: ^o
	♥ 4:57pm mariano: Miss G: That's good to hear. It's always heartwarming when movie baddies turn out to be nice people. Handy: Yes, but you're Katz's pastrami, never forget that.
	4:58pm fm Mike: @Handy Haversack, what was the name of the book??? Also that "beer spilled on a Pastrami Sandwich" is a good metaphor lol. Those black forest sandwiches sound goood!
	♥ 4:59pm TDK60: There oughta be a band called NWW List. Except these days it would be: So-and-so w/the NWW List featuring Addendum.
	🎸 ♥ 5:00pm Bruce S.: this is great Fabio thanks
	🎸 ♥ 5:00pm Handy Haversack: Hey, fm Mike! How did we miss each other last week at the gathering? It was Red Dust, by Yoss: restlessbooks.org...
	🎸 ♥ 5:01pm chresti: Haha TDK60.
	5:01pm fm Mike: @Handy I skyped in with LCBD! I gave everyone a wave :)
	5:04pm Miss G: Wow, I put in the headphones for these pieces, great. The scent of the decaying peonies in the vase getting stronger. The blue fairy lights I put up to test for a party glowing behind them. Perfection.
	🎸 ♥ 5:06pm Bruce S.: Do people in Mount Hope actualy call the station WMFU? and what happens if they don't?
	🎸 ♥ 5:06pm chresti: Yay, party at Miss Gs!
	♥ 5:06pm Megaroni: The art of failure with our Super cool host, Fab!
	🎸 ♥ 5:07pm Jason from Houston: I love all of you dirty commies so very much. ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎ ❤︎
	♥ 5:08pm chris in the redwoods: Fabio, i can say with total certainly i am enjoying your selections today. always stuff i've never heard and want to hear more often.
	5:13pm Miss G: chresti, I would love to have all y'all over for a party! In the aughts I was part of an online hobby that had meetups in Manhattan, people came from all over. Was so fun.
	🎸 ♥ 5:14pm Handy Haversack: Jason, back at you, Comrade.
	5:15pm Fabio: @ Miss G: I'll second that -- met Mr. Kelly years ago at a party, he was very nice, soft spoken, intelligent, very unassuming and a gentleman.
	♥ 5:16pm chris in the redwoods: yup, its mutual and equally apportioned, Jason.
	5:22pm Miss G: re: Mr. Kelly I should add, that Seido Karate is point fighting, not smash in the face fighting. <the real purpose of this martial art is cultivation of character.>
	🎸 ♥ 5:29pm Bruce S.: Really into this set Fabio
	5:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Like Horror Movie people traditionally have often turned out to be especially unpretentious & appreciative & charitable & stuff... & perhaps something akin in the HeavyMetal community (altho' Rawkers can't be bet on)...
	🎸 ♥ 5:34pm Handy Haversack: Giving away Clay's Gremlin! Fabio, you devious mastermind!
	🎸 ♥ 5:34pm chresti: Jason, backatcha! Miss G, sounds like fun! We went to our first post-pandemic party a couple of weeks ago (everyone vaxxed) outside at a friend's spectacular Altadena home. I have a feeling there will be many parties and get togethers in the coming year.
	🎸 ♥ 5:35pm Handy Haversack: chresti, was it fun -- and exhausting? That Glistener Glathering last week was a total blast -- and I could have slept for a year afterward.
	🎸 ♥ 5:38pm chresti: Handy, it was! Much good food and company, and yes, exhausting.
	5:39pm Miss G: I'm exhausted already from packing -- I'm afraid I'll bring 3 sweaters and 0 toothbrush. (Do y'all still be getting swag? I fear mine will arrive when I'm gone. . .)
	🎸 ♥ 5:40pm chresti: Where are you going, Miss G?
	5:41pm Miss G: chresti, a few hours away in Virginia, it's just I haven't slept overnight anywhere in forever!
	♥ 5:41pm chris in the redwoods: Miss G, maybe you could contact Joe McG to put a hold on your swag, if that's a thing?
	5:41pm David in London: Is it the Gremlin with the denim interior and the built-in flowbee?
	🎸 ♥ 5:43pm Bruce S.: I don't want denim interior,it would be to much denim
	5:43pm Miss G: Thank you chris, you make me realize, I should put a note on the door of the nice young man down the hall (who wakes me up every night when he comes home from his restaurant job <G>)
	5:44pm rev. turnip druid: ooh. this.
	🎸 ♥ 5:44pm Bruce S.: I'm finding it pleasurable to say Denim
	5:44pm rev. turnip druid: i mean, everything else as well. but ooh. this.
	🎸 ♥ 5:45pm Carmichael: Has anyone mentioned Panic in Needle Park?
	🎸 ♥ 5:46pm chresti: I've never seen Panic in Needle Park.
	🎸 ♥ 5:46pm Handy Haversack: Carmichael, surely someone must have -- at some point someone must have said something!
	🎸 ♥ 5:47pm Bruce S.: Good one Carmichael
	5:49pm Miss G: And since Fabio played OST from Klute last week (week before?) i'll say that it has some great street scenes. And the last scene in the huge garment district space brought back a lot of memories!
	🎸 ♥ 5:49pm chresti: I've seen panics in other parks, though.
	♥ 5:51pm chris in the redwoods: i have not seen or heard of that one, Carm. but it sounds absolutely horrifying.
	🎸 ♥ 5:51pm chresti: *panic
	🎸 ♥ 5:52pm Bruce S.: Panic in Needle park definitly has the vibe
	♥ 5:53pm Jeff Golick: THIS SET
	5:53pm Fredericks: My understanding is Jagger plays the main intro riff on this song.
	🎸 ♥ 5:54pm dale: hey fablio. been enjoying the cacophony offline.
	♥ 5:54pm Yes: really lovely segue
	♥ 5:54pm TDK60: This is a unique old Rollings cut. Grazie, Fabio. Soon! ..

	5:54pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Midnight Mile ❤️
	♥ 5:55pm Jeff Golick: Has anyone seen "Report from the Commissioner?" I haven't, but wonder about it.
	🎸 ♥ 5:55pm chresti: Thanks Fabio! Enjoyed every minute!
	🎸 ♥ 5:55pm Bruce S.: Fabio, thanks so much, really enjoyed it ,good week
	🎸 ♥ 5:55pm Handy Haversack: There's a bar in my neighborhood that takes its name from "Moonlight Mile" -- run by a rocker and all-around good dude! Thanks, Fabio! Great show today. Very glad to have caught it. Later on, you beautiful failures.
	♥ 5:55pm HyperDose: Thanks Fablio..sorry it's a reflex at this point, FABio! This was a great soundtrack to eat post-workout chicken patties to!
	5:55pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Thank you Fabio

	🎸 ♥ 5:58pm Bruce S.: I kind of miss the Old Codger now, but i'll get over it
	5:58pm David in London: Thanks Fabio, terrific show as usual. Good night folks.
	♥ 5:59pm slugluv1313: and yes, i remember wanting to see Panic in Needle Park when it was released! but was too young (and parens did not take us to the movies anyway) . . . iirc, it was not on DVD for years?? but have not been able to bring myself to watch it -- TERRIFYING, but that poor puppy
	5:59pm Miss G: Oh, thank you chresti! I'm sad I'll have to listen to GenKen on Sunday in the archive. I know you'll have a great trip to SF area!
